Zuby and Carl discuss the UK’s ongoing decline. They begin by examining conservatism and its meaning in 2024, immigration concerns, and the opposing rationale between the left and the right. Additionally, Carl reflects on negative versus positive liberalism and concerns about liberal excess. The two also discuss what the UK would look like under Carl's leadership.
